Check Out The Absurd Backheel Volley This French Guy Scored
Boy, do these dudes in France’s lower tiers know how to score wondergoals. After last week’s backheel-to-overhead kick golazo, we now have Jordan Blondel upping the stakes by sizing up a long ball from his own half, and while backpedaling towards goal, kicking the ball in with his heel. From outside...
Harry Redknapp And Jordanian Journalist Have An Unproductive Interview
Harry Redknapp, the new (temporary?) manager of the Jordan national team, celebrated his first win in charge after his team beat Bangladesh yesterday, 8-0. More difficult than the match itself was the postgame interview, in which both ‘Arry and the unfortunate journalist tasked with speaking to him ...
Report: Lakers Investigating Sexual Harassment Allegation Against Nick Young And Jordan Clarkson (UPDATED)
The Los Angeles Lakers are investigating after a woman accused guards Nick Young and Jordan Clarkson of sexually harassing her and her mother on Sunday night, reports ESPN....
Report: NBA Free Agency Moratorium Reduced To Five Days
Remember last summer’s NBA free agency moratorium period, when DeAndre Jordan agreed to sign with the Mavericks before reneging on his verbal commitment and re-signing with the Clippers on a crazy night that included an emoji war? A similar occurrence is less likely this summer, as Adrian Wojnarowsk...
DeAngelo Williams Heckles Jordan Cameron While He Pees
So that’s a weird headline. It only exists because DeAngelo Williams and Jordan Cameron are part of this year’s American Football Without Barriers camp in Egypt, and also because it’s hard to hold a pee on a long bus trip....
Danny Green Gets Deked By Chris Paul <i>And</i> Dunked On By DeAndre Jordan In One Play
The Spurs lost to the Clippers last night in L.A., 105-86. In typically passive-aggressive Spurs fashion they managed to deflate the game before it happened, holding out Kawhi Leonard with “calf tightness,” so who the hell knows what the result means. Probably nothing. That probably does not make Da...
A Guy In Jeans Had The Best Dunk Of All-Star Weekend
This year’s dunk contest was one of the best in recent memory (Aaron Gordon got hosed), but the best dunk of the weekend was one that happened during a timeout at last night’s All-Star game....
Jordan Clarkson Had Some Very Prudent Advice For D'Angelo Russell
After Jordan Clarkson and D’Angelo Russell played well in Team USA’s win over the World squad in yesterday’s Rising Stars victory, a reporter asked them a question that translated to, “How freeing did it feel to play for someone else besides Byron Scott for a night?” After answering himself, it sure...
5'10" John Jordan Unleashes A Pair Of Nasty Dunks To Win D-League Dunk Contest
John Jordan, who’s only an inch taller than Isaiah Thomas, is currently playing for the Toronto Raptors D-League affiliate. The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi alumnus took part in the D-League’s dunk contest this afternoon and brought the house down with two of the best dunks I’ve seen someone under 6'0" ...
Chris Paul Throws His Body In Front Of Hack-A-Jordan Attempt
Here’s a moment from last night’s game between the Clippers and Celtics, in which Clips point guard Chris Paul invents a great way to short-circuit the Cetlics’ attempt to deploy everyone’s least-favorite NBA strategy:...
How Crying Jordan Became A Thing
It might be the only good meme: Crying Jordan, a photo of a weepy Michael Jordan, seemingly custom-made for the internet to superimpose his face onto the head of anyone who just fucked up. It’s beautifully simple, it’s viscerally funny, and by this point a large amount of the humor comes from expect...
Adam Silver Says NBA Will Seek To Change Hack-A-Player Rules
It’s the bane of any NBA fan who just wants the game to end so they can go to sleep. Hack-a-player, the tactic that sees the (usually) trailing team intentionally foul an opposing big man away from the ball in the hopes he’ll miss his free throws, is a blight and it’s spreading: there have already b...
NBA Teams Have Found Creative New Ways To Intentionally Foul
Because the NBA refuses to admit that intentional fouling is a real problem, its scourge is spreading. Tonight’s games featured four different players getting hacked, a new strategy that pushes the rulebook to the limit, and a refinement of the most hilarious kind of intentional foul....
Jordan Morris Joining MLS Is A Good Thing, For Now
It took a rule change, a tense few days worrying whether he’d make his professional career announcement wearing a different shade of green, and probably more than a little soul-searching, but MLS has landed its man. Jordan Morris has officially signed with the Seattle Sounders after rejecting an off...
Here's Michael Jordan Gossip That We Desperately Want To Believe
This week, a day after former Chicago Bulls assistant coach Johnny Bach died at 91, we got an email. A friend of a friend had sent the tipster a summary of a 2011 dinner with Bach. It was filled with all sorts of fun anecdotes about Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Jerry Krause, and more characters o...
Kobe Bryant Ramps Up His Michael Jordan Cosplay With A New Trademark
It’s becoming pretty clear that Kobe Bryant’s pathological commitment to fashioning his image after Michael Jordan’s is going to continue into his post-playing days. To wit, Kobe has put a trademark claim on the phrase “Friends hang sometimes, banners hang forever.”...
Watch DeAndre Jordan Miss 22 Free Throws In One Game
Clippers center DeAndre Jordan made a bit of NBA history last night, tying the record for most missed free throws in a game. While getting maimed by the Trail Blazers’ hack-a-Jordan strategy, Jordan bricked 22 freebies....
